What's your favorite T207 with a brown background and a Recruit back?

I'll go with Bill McKechnie since it's a Rookie Card

Great cards Bill....

I quickly looked at mine and these two jumped out at me.
I do like the McKechnie though, but I don't own one

The oldest Major Leaguer ever, Chester "Red" Hoff lived to the grand old age of 107.

TRIVIA........Chet struck-out the the first batter he faced in the Major Leagues in a relief role pitching for the NY Highlanders.

And, the last batter he faced in his Major League career grounded out to second base. Who were these two famous hitters ? ?

T207 aficionados know that this is THE toughest Recruit back card in the set, and love it for its rarity and appearance.

This card is one of those that makes sense in person and is definitely "card, not holder" material. It just glows .. not a hint of crazing, just cut a bit wonky...

I'll politely differ with you, Bob - Block isn't tops as toughest on the Recruit list for me, though he's definitely Top 10, probably Top 5... and seriously grade-sensitive. I did get really lucky with this one.



I suspect we'd find the same sort of opinions as to the top 5-10 Recruit back difficulties as there are differences of opinion on the Broadleaf side... all a matter of timing, chance, and when one happened across their copy.

I am always game to add onto a worthy 10 year old thread. Here is my (one of my) favorite T207 Recruit cards...Beals Becker. And it is one that is commonly available too!

This set has some of the worst artwork on any baseball card set ever produced, and also some of the best. I wish the good artist(s) could have made image for all of them.
